Faviol Seferi
Bulgarian niche house focused on ultra-rich gourmand-woody extraits like Insomnia.
Faviol Seferi is an independent niche perfume brand founded by Faviol Seferi in 2017. According to retailer Uni/Vere Parfumerie, the project began that year with the creation of his first fragrance, Insomnia, described as an "exceptional olfactory masterpiece" and explicitly noted as being founded in 2017. The brand is associated with Bulgaria in Parfumo’s brand listing, and its compositions are developed in collaboration with perfumers Sezer Sabah and Svetoslav Rusev, as documented by both Fragrantica and ScentAdvice.
Insomnia, launched in 2017, is the brand’s debut and flagship scent. Luckyscent and ScentAdvice list a dense gourmand-woody structure built around Cuban rum, dark chocolate, caramel, coffee, ylang ylang, patchouli, sandalwood, cedarwood, and Tahitian vanilla, with the retailer describing it as a tobacco-oriented composition that moves between smoky, spicy, jammy and boozy facets. Product copy from Luckyscent notes that Seferi sought out unusual raw materials for this release, such as 50-year-old sandalwood from India and Tahitian vanilla.
The second fragrance, Insomnia Ritual, appeared in 2021, as confirmed by Fragrantica and review content on YouTube, and is positioned as a follow-up to the original with a different profile that introduces pear and vanilla as key accents. Across both releases, the brand focuses on rich, high-impact unisex extraits that lean gourmand and woody, aiming at perfume enthusiasts who appreciate intense, long-lasting scents built around edible notes, booze, woods and vanilla.
A niche, luxury house known for gourmand compositions.
The brand started in 2017 with Insomnia, a single fragrance that quickly became known in enthusiast circles for its extreme sweetness, boozy chocolate-vanilla profile and powerful performance. In 2021, Faviol Seferi expanded that concept with Insomnia Ritual, essentially developing a small line around the same core idea rather than branching into lighter or fresher styles. So far the direction has remained focused on maximalist gourmands, signaling a commitment to this niche rather than broad commercial diversification.
If you enjoy dense, boozy chocolate-vanilla bombs that leave a heavy trail, Faviol Seferi is worth seeking out. If you want subtle, versatile everyday perfume, this house is likely to feel overwhelming and one-dimensional at its current stage.
